I have a number of Exabye M2 tapes in which TSM (5.1) is reporting several
read errors (in one case as many as 15,000 errors).  Also some tapes report
1 or 2 write errors.  According to Exabyte the 8mm AME tape logevity is
rated around 20,000 passes.  Is there a report within Tivoli, that will
help me determine the number of passes on a particular volume?
